MCT Oil Boosts Nervous System Health 🧠

Nerve cells are dependent upon glucose for healthy functioning but when glucose metabolism is impaired for any reason like insulin resistance, oxidative stress, or chronic inflammation, then the sugar molecules can’t get into nerve cells to supply the fuel for energy they need. However, MCT oi is rapidly converted into ketones by the liver, which can be used as an alternative energy source for any cell, including nerve cells. This can help keep the nerves functioning and slow down the process of further nerve damage.

Ketones can also help support and rejuvenate damaged mitochondria. Since nerves rely heavily on a continuous supply of energy to transmit signals properly, when you improve mitochondrial function with ketones, you improve the health of nerve cells leading to better nerve signal transmission and improved nerve function.
